I took Ruby to the doctors today for her 2 yr well child check and she jumped in her weight from the 2nd percentile (where she has remained for most of her life) to the 10th! YAY! Now I wont be reported to the Department of Child and Family Services anytime soon. ::wink:: And now hopefully they wont be on my case so much about how little she is despite her above average level of development, high food consumption and normal activity levels. They wont keep warning me that she might be "failure to thrive" now despite those things too!
Also, I was reading my mom's Christmas letters from the past 40 years (she compiled them and gave us a book) and I found that from at least age 3, I wore the same size clothes as my younger sister. So at 3 yrs old I wore 18 month clothing. From there on we still wore the same clothes. So take that doctors! I was a little kid too! And when you combine that to Andy's genetics (he disappears if he turns sideways) I think we have solved the "failure to thrive" mystery.
